If I...

If I…

I could never count my heartbeats from the day I was born until now,
If I only had today, I would wake up before sunrise, while you sleep peaceful, memorize every detail of your face; rest my head on your chest where time pause indefinitely,
And if there could be no more tomorrows, I know how I would spend my today,
I will hold you and tell you I love you, ask you for one more prolong day, one more closeness, one more conversation, one more embrace, one more…

I could never count my tears; our heavenly father must have hundreds, thousands of bottles filled and stored with teardrops.
If I only had today, I would remind you of forever, that my love for you will, could never change, I won’t let time, excuses, doubt get in the way, there is no time like the present life doesn’t come with any guarantees,
And if there could be no more tomorrows, I would tell you how much I need you, ask you for one more walk down memory lane called my secret garden, maybe you’ll remember why you love me than,

I believe that everything happens for a reason, we’re not just tossed by the wind and left in the hand of fate, sometimes life sent a storm that’s unexpected and we forced to face our deepest pain,
If I only had today, if there could be no more tomorrows and I’m granted three wishes, I’ll give them all to you,
I’ll wish you could go back a decade; I will remain in this present, carry a grieve so hollow, all my day’s I’ll drift threw our memories.
I’ll wish when you reach that specific decade, you never met me; I will remain present and remember that I always hope and faith that all the one more’s could’ve equal to a lifetime of forever.
I’ll wish in that new decade, all those you care for, love and cherish, your hearts are filled with happiness and good health; I will remain in this present, embrace the fact I was loved once, now forgotten, couldn’t reach forever.
If I…
